Error when composing new email to send "This message cannot be saved" -?

Just upgraded to Tiger 10.4.6 and finally got my email working except for some reason every time I compose a new email, I get an error pop up stating "this message cannot be saved" -what is it talking about???

Yes, if this is an AOL account, that was the problem.
AOL doesn’t let mail clients create mailboxes at the root level of the account directory on the server. If you have Store draft messages on the server enabled, Mail tries to save the draft on the server, but fails to do so because AOL doesn’t let Mail create the Drafts mailbox there.
Actually, you should turn OFF Store messages on the server for all the mailboxes in Preferences > Accounts > Mailbox Behaviors, so that those mailboxes are stored locally instead.

    Please, please someone tell me how to turn this awful feature off.  It puts links to random contacts under the To field when composing a new email.  Here's a picture for reference:

  • When composing new email (gmail) tool bar showing fonts, colors, bold, italics, underline, etc. is missing? When using Internet Explorer the bar is there.

    When using Firefox, the tool bar above the "compose mail" window is missing. I cannot change fonts, use bold, italics, underline, change colors, align margins, etc. When using Internet Explorer the bar IS there but I prefer Firefox, as it is much faster. My operating system is Vista.

    Thanks Tony T1, I have tried using the Mail -> Format drop downs...
    ... and using the format toolbar...
    ... and in both cases, Bold and Italic is greyed out... (bit hard to see in the second screenshot, but it is, honest!)
    The mail message is def set as Rich Text, which you can see in the first screenshot, as the option to Make Plain Text is there...

  • Try to create new email account, receive this message.

    Logging in to the fuse.net POP server “pop.fuse.net” failed. Make sure the user name and password you entered are correct, then click Continue. If the information isn’t correct, you cannot receive messages.
    have one fuse email account already that works correctly.

    Try deleting the account and adding it back. Also check Connection Doctor under the Mail/Window menu to see what the connection status is.

  • I've a new account on iMac.  When composing an email the contact list does not show up on the bar.  WWhen I start keying in a name, it comes up with the address.  How do I engage the  contact list from the email?

    I've a new account on iMac.  When composing an email the contact list does not show up on the bar, which would allow me to select the persons I want to include on the distribution of the email.  When I start keying in a name in the email, it comes up with the person's address, which shows it is synced.  How do I engage the contact list from the email like I do on my old account (where a contact list icon shows up, along with the "attach" and other icons) ?

    With the New Message window open, go to the View menu and select "Customize Toolbar...".
    In the screen that opens, drag the item labelled "Address" into the Toolbar area of the New Message window, then click the "Done" button.
    That item should be then added to the Toolbar for the New Message window.
    Note that the main Mail window and the New Message window (as well as the separate message window if you open a message that way) use different toolbars - the settings/inclusions for one do not carry over to another.

  • I use an email client that notify's you when a new email arrives in your inbox. On IE a window pop's up to let you know whith a chime. In Firefox the window opens but with no chime. Is there an extention or add on that will do this?

    I use an email client that notify's you when a new email arrives in your inbox. On IE a window pop's up with a chime that lets you know of new mail in your inbox. In Firefox the window pops up but with no sound. Is there an add on or extention that will do this?
    == User Agent ==
    Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1; NISSC; .NET CLR 1.0.3705; .NET CLR 2.0.50727; InfoPath.1)

    Is the notifier part of the email program? Is it an independent program like poptray? If it is separate from Firefox, it really shouldn't matter which browser you are using. Unless the notification is within IE.

    Thanks for responding....but isn't your potential solution designed for Windows users? I have a Mac.
    If it does apply to Mac, I am also hoping for something simpler as this could take weeks to isolate the problem and it would be more efficient to use another browser for mail
    Also, I should have added, this problem occurs only occasionally and seemingly only when I am taking some time to compose a message

  • Always use the default account when composing new messages box missing in Outlook 2010 after updating the product key.

    I have 2 accounts in outlook 2010. 1 is for me and the other I have delegate access to. When I am in the delegates email and want to reply it automatically uses the account the email is in. So if I am in my email, the from is me but if I am in the delegates
    email and hit reply the from is them. Now this is not working and I can't figure out how to get it to work. The only thing that changes is that office asked me to activate recently, which is weird since I have had this same computer with the same version of
    office for almost a year now. I did a ton of searching and came across an option on the internet: "Always use the deafult account when composing new messages" but this option is not there on my computer. I checked another computer I have with Office
    2010 also and the option is available so it must be something to do with the office activation because I haven't done it on this computer yet. PLEASE HELP!!!

    Seems this is a hot issue recently, I've post a reply to another thread with the similar topic, please reference that:
